Corrected entry: In the scene when Tuco has ordered Blondie to stand on a stool and put the hangman's noose around his neck, he orders him to tighten the noose. Just as Tuco aims his pistol to shoot out the leg of the stool, an explosion causes the entire floor to collapse. Tuco drops to a lower level but logically Blondie should have dropped also, thus hanging himself. Instead he mysteriously disappears and lives on for the rest of the movie.

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966)
Corrected entry: When Lee Van Cleef rides up to the ranch, a boy is riding a mule to draw water. He spots the stranger and stops in front of an overhead barrier. The next shot we see of the boy, he is stopped with the overhead barrier behind him.
Correction: In the 5 seconds the camera is off the boy, the mule could have taken 2 steps forward.

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966)
Corrected entry: In the scene when Tuco is confronted by the three bounty hunters who shoot him off his horse, he is standing in front of several large rocks in the background. When the angle changes he is now standing with no rocks behind him and just open desert.
Correction: The rocks do not disappear. As he stands up, he turns to the side slightly and the rocks are now at his side instead of his back.

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966)
Corrected entry: In the beginning scenes of the movie, Angel Eyes shows up at the man's house to get the name Bill Jackson is hiding under. The boy sits at the table and starts to spoon out some of the food from the bowl but his Mother stops him. He puts the spoon down on the table and leaves. The man then picks up the bowl and the spoon is now back in the bowl.
Correction: There are 2 spoons in the bowl, the boy takes out 1, Angel Eyes uses the other.

For a Few Dollars More (1965)
Corrected entry: When Lee Van Cleef shoots his rifle at the man escaping on the horse, he is right next to his own horse and a rifle shot that close to a horse would cause it to rear or be startled. The horse is not startled, even when a second time Cleef shoots his pistol. The horse does not react.
Correction: The Colonel' s horse belongs to the "best shot in the Carolinas" a bounty hunter and conceivably served as his horse in The Civil War. It is entirely plausible that his horse was much more used to gunfire than a grain bag. My sisters thoroughbreds (a notoriously skittish breed), barely start when they hear my 12 gauge after a few years' exposure.

Corrected entry: In the auditorium scene where King Kong is chained up for the audience to see, Denham introduces Jack Driscoll to the audience but he refers to him as John Driscoll.

Correction: Two things: first, it's clear when watching the scene that the floor gives way below Tuco, but not Blondie. As the camera pans down, you can see Blondie still standing on the chair. Second, Blondie's hands weren't tied, so it's easy to assume he took the noose off and escaped.
